    Congratulations on being able to fly again! Long haul flights are tough for anyone, going with a toddler is very impressive. Looks like she managed the hours on the plane well. Enjoy your trip!

    She's so well adjusted & that's what being a parent is all about! You're doing a fantastic job as parents. I don't know if anyone has ever said anything to you guys, but you really are! Hunter struck gold picking you two as parents! Safe travels & great video!!!

    "Little teenager" followed by eye roll. Priceless. I'm sure she will love it if you show it to her at an 'age appropriate' time.
    Glad to see you happily out and about.

    Such a lovely vlog! I’ve traveled with babies myself so know how exciting but tiring it can be. My youngest actually used to sleep a lot of our plane trips away, up to 13 hours. I felt so blessed at times like that. His three sisters weren’t quite so into traveling, oh boy, that was a different story. Enjoy your new adventure! Xxxxxx

  • @Saravon
    @Saravon 2 роки тому +1

    You guys did a perfect job of keeping her busy and not losing it with all the delays. I hope you enjoy Hawaii! Hunter is so smart, you can tell she is really absorbing everything she is learning. My son was frustrated at her age because he couldn't get words out in sentences so I taught my now 18 year old (I'm 42) how to do basic ASL and OMG what a huge difference. He could communicate and then around 16 months he could speak 4 word sentences. I caught the first one on camera, I recorded everthing and it's so great that you guys do too. Someday Hunter will love to see all this footage.

    You guys are honestly amazing! I work at Sydney international airport (cannot believe I missed seeing you!) and all I can say is thank you! Travel is definitely different these days with the different documents required as well as PCR tests etc and you guys have shown exactly what is required and have explained it so well! This video will definitely help those who aren’t too sure.
    Hope you are having an amazing holiday! ❤️✈️

    Well done guys👏👏... I remember writing a comment about tips for long-haul with a baby/doddler when Jess was pregnant (which you gave a lovely reply to) .. The key point was as long as you are relaxed and love travel, your child will love it and be excited and fine. The second tip was prep with activities and snacks . Hunter was a star! 👶👌.. And that's (a big part) down to your attitudes🤗

    You guys stayed at The Modern! My wife and I were there this past summer with our 3 kiddos and they loved the pool - and lagoon!
    Waking up to a wonderful cup of coffee and hearing the fam yell out, “HEY!!! THEY’RE STAYING AT OUR HOTEL!,” was a delightful happy sound.
    We hope you guys have a happy Christmas, safe travels, and Aloha from San Antonio, TX! Cheers!
    Side note Steve, being that my wife and I love your coffee obsessions, I have to ask: why McDonald’s? 😆 So many wonderful options there. Enjoy mate!
